Listen

Do you hear it?

The whispers of a once thriving boy

He never screams

Or shouts

But he's there

Begging for help

From anyone

But how are you supposed to fix yourself if all your tools are just one step too far?

He's gone insane

And he can't find the way back

Because there is no way back

No home left for him

Pull yourself together

They tell him

But the remains of the boy have already been scattered across the four corners of the earth

And he doesn't know where to go

He needs help

From anyone

But who's to tell him he's on his own?
